Beijing Bacheng Autoworker is a person with high risk of occupational disease

There are a total of 115 categories of statutory occupational diseases in 10 major categories in China. Judging from the incidence of occupational diseases across the country, the number of diagnosed occupational diseases per year is more than 10,000. Among them, pneumoconiosis, deafness, and occupational poisoning are the three most common occupational diseases.

This year, the city's two-level safety supervision department initiated a special campaign to control occupational hazards in the motor vehicle maintenance industry, and carried out special management actions on 1,705 auto repair shops throughout the city. According to the introduction of the City Safety Supervision Bureau, there are occupational hazards in the motor vehicle maintenance industry due to the presence of baking, painting, painting, welding, cleaning and grinding processes. In the course of this special campaign, law enforcement officers discovered a total of 2,395 occupational health problems, issued 1,273 law enforcement instruments, and imposed 47 economic penalties.

80% of car maintenance personnel are outsiders

The Municipal Safety Supervision Bureau stated that there are still some problems that cannot be ignored in the occupational health work in the motor vehicle maintenance industry: the awareness of occupational hazard prevention and control is not high among the principals of some units, and the awareness of the seriousness of occupational hazards is not in place; the self-protection awareness of workers is poor. . About 80% of the workers are migrant workers from other places. Due to the difficult working environment and the high mobility of personnel, the enterprises are not in the right position to publicize and protect occupational disease prevention. Many workers lack awareness of occupational hazards and lack self-protection awareness.

The inspection also found that the auto repair shop occupational hazards management system was not perfect, did not detect the occupational hazard factors on the job site according to the inspection cycle, and did not perform physical examination on the personnel exposed to occupational hazards according to the physical examination cycle. The main responsible person and occupational health management personnel did not Participate in occupational health special training, the occupational hazard contract notification is not targeted, ventilation facilities in the paint booth can not run effectively.

Regarding the problems found during the inspection, the safety supervision department assisted the employing unit to conduct a careful analysis, put forward rectification measures, and repeatedly conducted review to ensure that the rectification was in place. Through special treatment, the city’s motor vehicle maintenance and repairing employers invested a total of 4.551 million yuan. According to the production process and occupational hazard characteristics, a large number of occupational hazard protection facilities such as ventilation, detoxification, dust removal, and shielding were added, and a separate adjustment room was set up for polishing. Workers equipped with dust masks and ear plugs for cutting, grinding, and working personnel equipped with gas masks and protective clothing for the paint and spray painting workers have significantly improved their work environment.

Health records will be "one person, one file"

The Municipal Safety Supervision Bureau stated that occupational diseases, unlike other diseases, are completely preventable. According to the requirements of the Occupational Disease Prevention Law, enterprises are the main body of occupational disease prevention. The director and manager are the first responsible persons. The employer must provide workers with qualified workplaces to ensure that the concentration or intensity of all toxic and hazardous substances in the workplace is lower than the national standard. Enterprises should regularly carry out regular inspections of workplaces with occupational hazards, and must conduct health checks on workers exposed to occupational hazards every year. If the health rights of workers are damaged, they can call the safety supervision department to report the complaint number 12350.

It is reported that the city will compile an occupational health surveillance file template, specify the contents and requirements of the occupational health surveillance file, and guide the employer to establish occupational health surveillance files for each worker exposed to occupational hazards in accordance with the work requirements of “one person, one file”. It is required that the rate of establishment of employers with occupational hazards in the city reach more than 90% in 2014.
